Lingerie News: Dirty Pretty Things and a lot more!

Here’s some tasty nibbles of lingerie news for you!

Dirty Pretty Things opens in Australia

Australian readers, rejoice! Some fantastic labels have been brought to your doorstep with the launch of Dirty Pretty Things in Sydney. The glamorous boutique opened with a talented list of designers: Bela’s Dead, Willow, Fifi Chachnil and Chantal Thomass are but a few. Their launch party featured burlesque performer Rachel St. James and pink champagne – we have some launch photos coming, and will update this entry with a link.
Creater Melissa Gallagher has created a fantastic brand and we’ll be keeping track of her progress!

With all their lovely lingerie, our only lament about Dirty Pretty Things is that they don’t have an online shop (yet?)– we all want some dirty pretty things!

Ophelia Fancy creates “Wimbledon ” costume

Saucy lingerie / costume designer Ophelia Fancy has whipped up a bit of tennis frenzy with their limited edition ‘Wimbledon’ costume. We’re not sure if we love or hate the tennis-ball nipple pasties, but we adore the over-the-top printed bows on the knee-socks and matching shoes. It’s terribly English, and will probably make a few tennis fans very happy! The set is for sale at Coco de Mer (London), She Said Boutique in Brighton, and through Ophelia Fancy themselves.
